Olivia Somerlyn
The multi-talented OLIVIA SOMERLYN is proud to present her new single ‘PARACHUTE’. – out now. The track was co-written and produced by none other than NICK JONAS of JONAS BROTHERS fame who has also recently had much success as a solo artist signed to Universal/ Island. The song is an exploration of various themes and aspects of ‘holding on’ or ‘letting go’ in relationship. As Olivia says:
“.. to me the song is about letting go of a relationship even though that means letting go of the ‘highest highs’ that the ‘Parachute’ is going to bring you up to – because you know it’s just going to push you down again to the ‘lowest lows’. It’s about letting go and making it your decision.”
Meanwhile Olivia’s silky vocals infuse the song with honey-like sweetness and emotion whilst the tune maintains a definite club vibe – essential for the dance floor. ‘PARACHUTE’ is a perfect combination from a perfect collaboration! As Jonas says of the track:
“I had a great time working on this song with Olivia ….I love that the song has this emotional pull while still feeling upbeat and high energy.”
‘PARACHUTE’ is the newest addition to Olivia’s already impressive resume. Not only is she backed by some music industry heavyweights (she is managed by Kevin Jonas Sr.) the 19-year-old singer, songwriter, pianist and guitarist created quite a buzz in 2013 when she famously supported JESSIE J on her UK tour. Not only that, Somerlyn has previously toured with THE JONAS BROTHERS, VICTORIA JUSTICE and Nickelodeon boyband supergroup BIG TIME RUSH. She was also a runner up in the recent Macy’s iHeart Radio ‘Rising Star’ Contest in the US – almost pipping the first prize and coming an incredibly close second!
